spring

I think of fall as a big transition for me I switch from canoe and fishing trips in the mid coast to brook trout fishing and upland bird hunting in the North Maine Woods at Libby Camps.

I take a first aid and CPR course every other year so that I am always certified part of my commitment to provide safe trips for clients. My final class for this year was last evening. When I left the house it was snowing but not amounting to much, the roads on the way in were just wet. As the evening went by we could see out the windows that the snow was starting to really come down and it has been a long time since I had to drive home in a near white out!

This spring has been without a doubt one of the best we have experienced in a long time.. The river is not running at flood stage, it has been warm and pleasant most of the time, and the flowers are at least a couple of weeks ahead of schedule. The only down side is that we have had lots of wind, in fact today it is out of the northwest at easily 25 mph.
